It's a shame they shut down the Wonders of Life pavilion. Just because it educated us doesn't mean it wasn't entertaining, too.

I recorded this on my VCR when it aired and watched it about a thousand times. Ended up becoming a cast member in college and work as a travel agent sending people there now. This documentary really had soooo much to do with my love for all things Disney!! Thank you for posting.

Yes. It was released under their subsidiary, Touchstone. They weren't sure which label they were going to release it under until the last minute. Disney was still a little shy in those days about releasing PG movies in their name. If they made it today, I am sure it would have been a "Disney" movie.

Note how prominent Roger Rabbit, all but officially forgotten today, is in the opening.

Wow, 21 years has past and so much has changed. Although it would be nice to see the full concept behind the Russian Pavilion, the Mt. Fuji ride, the Toontown Transit, and the design for the Tower of Terror. Also it's weird seeing the Wonder's of Life and River Country being fully operational, now you can only see what's left of it. So currently, we wait for the next big thing, the new Avatar themed land in Animal Kingdom...<br>Amazing how things have changed.

looking at this video is a nostalgic look at the past in a production that was, itself, a nostalgic look at the past.

Went there at 28 yrs old as part of my honeymoon vacation (yep, not my choice lol) and I've been hooked and fascinated ever since. It's amazing overload. Live a couple hours south now. The place is mind boggling. Seems like there's not a speck of grass out of place. And the whole property is HUGE. Pure genius to buy that much land. They just never stop building more parks! The original parks are warn and aging a bit though.

I love watching these Disney Parks TV Special, it shows you how many years Disneyland and Walt Disney World bring out its magic to everyone especially watching it on TV. Too bad Disney isn't making these specials on TV anymore. :(
